TAKE WARNING.
A Law Which No One Ha. Compiled
with.

-
1t is not generally known, and yet it
should be, that by a recent act ofcongress
which applies to all the territories, there
are some things required in cases of the
solemnization of marriages, which for
the reason, probably, that the existence
of the law is not generally known, has
thus far been totally overlooked in Wyo-
ming-or here in Cheyenne, at least. By
the act referred to, certificates of marriage
are to be filed in the office of the judge
of probate OF the proper county ''imme-
diately'' after the marriage takes place,
n it becomes the duty of the person
performing the marriage ceremony to
file the certificate as above mentioned.
Not only this, but the law goes a step
farther, and makes it the duty of the
bride and bridegroom. the witnesses to
the ceremony, and all other persons
having anything to do with preparing the
said ceremony to see that the certificate is
filed as aforesaid" A failure to comply
with the provisions of this act of congress
makes all parties so failing subject to
prosecution. and imposes a penalty of
not exceeding 81, 600 in each case. This
law does not take the place of our terri
torial law on the subject of marriages,
and the sooner our people and officials
begin to find out what this law is and be-
gin to comply with it, the better it will
be, for there are already a number of
cases in which. prosecutions might be
commenced If anyone was disposed to
institute proceedings in the courts.
The act referred to provides that on
and after March l, 1887, the certificates
shall be filed, ETC., but not in a single in
stance has this yet been done in Chey-
enue. Forewarned is to be forearmed.

Several years ago some hundred or
more own sites belonging to the city of
Cheyenne were sold at auction, some of
them bringing a fair and others a mere
nominal price. After the sale had taken
place the deeds were all made ont and
when the purchasers came around and
paid for them the deeds were delivered to
the proper parties. Several of the parties
who had hidden in lots at the auction sale
however failed to come for their deeds and
never have come to this time, although
the sale mentioned took place about nine
years ago. Recently, however, these par
ties or those to whom they have sold what
little interest they had in these lots have
come forward and asked for their deeds.
The city now upon the advice of City At
torney VanDevanter refuses to deliver
the deeds on the ground that the purchas.
ers have long ago abandoned their pur-
chases. The lots are now to be adyer-
tised and sold at auction.

The number of those who will be thrown

MONTREAL'S CARNIVAL.
The storminG of the Ice Castle--A Crane
Display OF Pyrotechnics.

The Siorming of the lee Castle-A Grand
Display OF Pyrotechnies.
MONTREAL, February l0.-The greatest
attraction of the week-in fact, of the car
nival-was afforded to the visitors and ma
tives last night in the storming of the ice
castle by the united force of the snow-shoe
clubs recruited throughout Canada.
Hours before the beSieging army made its
appearance OH the hill, some two miles dis
tant from the city, Dominion Square,
where the castle is situated, was surround
ell by thousands of spectators. The win
dows of the Windsor Hotel and the houses
on the adjoining blocks were packed with
people. 1t seems as though every man and
woman in the city had turned ont to see
the display of fireworks.
The sight was worth seeing. Far up on
the hill, the summit of which is approach
ed by a winding road, the lights of the ad-
vancing hosts could be seen. There were
some 1000 men out in all, and each carried
a flaming torch in his hand. Their snake
like path, moving backward and forward
as they advanced, WAS novel, striking and
picturesque. In the meanwhile there was
evident hustle in the castle. Along the
parapets and terraces men could he seen
fastening, while others could he family
discerned in the turrets as they passed the
windows, torch in hand.
The work of defence went on, and the
spectators, cleared from the square by the
local constabulary, waited with intense in
terest the approach of besiegers. After
awhile they came. In long column,
fours front, they advanced, discharging
roman candles at the castle. They encom-
passed the ice castle, and, falling into bri-
gades in front of it, discharged their
weapons. The great crowds cheered with
delight. The noise of The hundreds of cam
dies of the besiegcrs added 10 the deeper
detonatiOns of the mines exploding on the
castle swelled into very respectable
volume of sound. The effect of the
many cOlOred balls from the candles
upon striking the ice walls, and the
consequent ricochet, was singular and I'M
pressive. The walls glOwed with many
colors; green, red and yellow alternately
lit mp the turrets. One silent spectator was
the moon, and after it had been 0bscured
for awhile by the volume Of smoke it
peeped out again and saw the army re-
treating in many directions.
Six or seven explosions occurred in the
palace during the attack and the reserve
ammunition took fire. There were many
harrow escapes A girl named Forget was
struck by q bomb which exploded prema-
turely. She was so seriously injured that
she is not expected to live. Two pieces of
the tower fell, seriously iniuring man
named Hyde.

sixth street. intending to come up to her
pier this morning Between 3 and o'clock
this morning an immense ice foe came
down with the outgoing tide and caught
her. The Wells City did not have steam
mp and she was helpless. She was carried
down stream on the edge of the fioe, dag-
ging her anchor, for more than one and
one-half miles, resisting all attempts to
stop her.
Opposite Christopher street the steamer
Lone Star, of the Morgan Line, lay anchor
ed in the stream. Captain Morgan saw
the iloe coming and the plight Of the Wells
City. That vessel was bearing straight
down upon the Lone Star, and every effort
was made by the latter to avoid a colli-
sion. The wheel was put hard aport and
she was swung partly around, hut too late
The Wells City drifting broadside upon
her bow, WAS struck by the cut water of
the Lone Star just ahaft the engine ROOM
A hole was knocked in her hull big enough
TO drive two horse truck through ana
she hegin to fill at once, the water rushing
in and filing her hold. Her boats were
launched and the crew, consisting of the
captain and twenty-three men, took to the
river.
The Lone Star had all she could do TO
save herself from being carried down by the
ice foe. She steamed up her pier aud close
to the shore and saved herself The Wells
City sank twenty minutes alter the COLI
sion. The Lone Star was only slightly
damaged. The Wells City lies nearly in
mid stream pointing down the river, with
both masts and about five feet of her black
smoke stack rising ont of the water Her
cargo will he taken out and then efforts
will he made to raise her.
The Merritt Coast Wrecking Company

DAMAGE FROM G0RGES
LYONS, MICHIGAN, UNDER WATER AND
THE STREETS PULL OF ICE.
The River Still Rising and One Thousand Acres
Under Watsr-Ths Worst Not Yst-0thsr
lee GOrges Do Immense Damage
The Illinois Floods Abating.

LYONS, MICH, February 10.-Lyons is
sea of ice. Grand river rose during the
night abOnt four feet and an ice gorge
formed Just below the city. The whole
business part of town is under water and
great damage has been sustained. The
loss will reach into the thousands. Several
families have been driven out OF their
dwellings and Others took to the upper
stories. The ice gorge covers al area of
about 400 acres and is estimated 20 feet
thick in places. The water is several feet
deep in the second floor in the woolen mills
and Cornell works 1t is feared the flour
ing mill, with 10, 600 bushels OF wheat and
200 barrels of flour, will he flooded. Should
the lansing ice reach here before the gorge
breaks it will probably leave the river bed
and carry many houses down the river.
All mails are shut of from the North and
West.
Boats manned with three or four oarsr
men each are making strenuous efforts to
save property. Some buildings have been
swept down the stream and Others will
surely go. The current is cutting the en-
bankment OF the water power company
and rushing in torrents through their fac
tories Those who can are anchoring their
buildings to keep them from being swept
down stream. Ii is estimated that one
thousand acres are covered with the ice
gorge. The village is swarming with peo-
pie from the country, who come to witness
the flood.
News from up the river shows that the
worst is not yet. Should the Lansing ice,
which is expected here tonight, reach us
before this gorge gives away there is no
limiting the damage that must be done.
At Owosso, Mich, the ice in the Shia-
wassee river is iammed below Main street
bridge and the water, already high, is ris-
ing gradually. All factories along the
river have been obliged to close.
